But he did want to say this: DuPerier "wants to start the rebuilding process as soon as possible," he told Unfair Park. "I am confident in that statement."

But Miller can't say when that'll happen ("there is no time line"). And he can't specifically address reasons for the delay. But generally?

"Generally, in fire litigation pieces of evidence like a charred piece of wood or a melted piece of plastic in a certain place can be very important to the fire investigator and recovery experts as to the cause of the fire and how it progressed," Miller says. "Things that look like insignificant evidence -- the depth of char, its location in a residence -- to good fire scene investigators, what seem to be innocuous things can be huge clues to what happened."
